    The document discusses mean-centering variables in linear regression. Mean-centering involves subtracting the mean from each value of a variable, redefining the zero point. This is done to change the interpretation of regression coefficients. Mean-centering X variables depends on the type of interpretation desired from the regression analysis. The document also notes that regression shows correlation but does not prove causation between variables like height and weight.

    Regression does not imply causation.

     Regression by itself does not establish ‘causation’.

     Regression is essentially a correlation technique.

     Some additional requirements are needed to interpret this


    correlation as causation.

     Wrong to say, ‘Height causes Weight’.

     Subtracting the mean from every value of a variable.

     It redefines the zero point for that variable .

     We could also center a variable around some value other than the
    mean.

    When should you mean center your X variables?

     Depends on the kind of interpretations you are looking for.
